picture book drafts piled up collecting dust? Have critiques for your
story, but haven't done a SINGLE thing to improve it? Need a jumpstart
to revise? ReviMo is for you!

Each ReviMo, you will be
encouraged to REVISE those picture book manuscripts. There will be
blogs, graphics (and perhaps vlogs) encouraging you to take out that
poopy first (second, third, fifteenth) draft and breathe new life into
it. I hope you will join us!

What
counts as REVISING? Making significant and thoughtful changes to a
Picture Book Manuscript. If you go through and change a few words that
doesn't count! I want you to stand your manuscripts on their heads,
twirl it around and get that outstanding story out! (check out Laura Ruby's post for more thoughts on what revision is and isn't!)And for fun:
